Is this bag stable on a Trek 7.3? Another Roswheel bag I bought kept tilting to the side

This bag works great! It is strapped to my Specialized Hard Rick mountain bike. The 3 velcro straps keep it stable. It does move slightly from side to side, but it stays upright. I can fit my Galaxy S5 phone in the phone pocket...roomy inside too.

This bag works well for me. I use it on a Gary Fisher mountain bike. No problem with tilting.

I just mounted this to a Trek 6000. The only adjustment was to angle it towards the rear wheel so my leg on the pedal would not hit it while riding.

No reason that it shouldnt. You might have to fiddle a little to get it balanced in the carrier, but my Trek "hybrid" fits just fine. I particularly like the fact that this carrier supports the wheels and is hitch-mounted rather than strapped to the trunk lid. I can have two bikes on and off and the carrier folded in less than 5 minutes.

I had no problems using this bag on my Trek cross bike. The handle did not interfere with any of the brake cables.

Forgot to mention in my answer that the bikes should be secured to the center post while the tilt feature is used..... I use an adjustable nylon strap and it works just fine.

Answer is maybe, it isnt the most shallow of bags, on my trip i defiantly had to worry about one side slipping down and resting on the exhaust. Now on my trip one side was packed much heavier than the other, because i put all the tools on one side. But overall, i loved the bag, well worth the money.

I did not have that problem on either of the bikes I used it on. One has cantilever brakes, the other has side pull types. The tapered bottom of the bag keeps it out of the way.

Whenever I do something active like biking and some hiking, I would use the secondary strap. That kept the backpack in its place no matter how much I was moving. To pull it to the side and use my camera, I would have to remove the secondary strap otherwise the bag would stay in place.

I've been using one for about six months, and it's not tipped forward or backward. I think that this is because the wheels are mounted right on the rear edge, so protrude by maybe an inch, and the base support at the front is under the outer fullsize pocket that the center of gravity stays within these three points.

Yes it is stable though it might get a bit scratched up. My problem is I can't close (fold down) one side so storage and to some extent, carrying, is awkward. One disadvantage of buying online: how to get it fixed.

I am using it to hold a Novara Safari bike while I do maintenance work on it. The bike is big, long and heavy and I can work on it without any problems at all. It neither wobbles, tips forward, backward or to the sides. It is easy to open and close you must, however, ensure that it is well extended and tight prior to using it. I hope that helps you without me having to go down to the garage and measuring the leg spread. Saludos, Rolando

Not sure, as I'm a road cyclist, but I would say, "Probably yes." The way the bag itself is attached to the bike frame makes it stable; it does not roll around. The lid has Velcro, and it closes securely. I am comfortable to carry my cell phone and car keys there. This bicycle wedge is the best small bag I have found.

No - I have looped the camera bag strap around the centr column to add weight. It's surprisingly stable - it is not meant to be a rock solid all purpose tripod. It's for travel - I took it all around Germany/Austria etc. and it did very well - it even kept my 6D w/28-300 L series relatively calm for long night exposures. That being said - it is not rock solid and does better when the legs are not fully extended. Highly recommend for travel - but if you're looking for stability - you're going to have pay much more for some carbon if you're looking to keep weight down and stability at the maximum. Hope this helps...

I have not had trouble with this bag doing that. My old one fell forward many times so I'm glad I don't have the problem anymore.

There is a pretty nice handle at the top. But I'm not sure it would handle that well. Right now the bag is having multiple issues fixed at a leather shop that is quite a distance away. If you would like I could measure the strap and send you a pic once we get it back this Saturday. The guy working on it said it is a good bag overall...

I've found that if the bag isn't packed very full, it wants to tip over onto its top unless I place most of the items on what would be the bottom when standing upright. When the bag is full, it stands on its own, no problem.

I have had all 3 of my bikes (road,mountain and hybrid) on the rack with no tipping issues whatsoever. I don't see the size of the bike being a concern.
